Default M-18 in my 782..??

Has anyone swapped a M-18 into the 782? If so, can you give me some help? I'm having a time getting the ignition switch/ignition to work.

The ignition switch for a 782 and the one needed for a M-18 are totally different.

There are two different wiring diagrams for the 782 model. depending on the Chassis Serial Number. If you supply your serial number, I'll send the correct wiring modification for your tractor.

FWIW
In a nutshell:
The m-18 requires a ground position to kill the mag.ignition.
Your oem switch provides power to a ignition coil or no power to the coil to stop the engine.( M-18 does not use this system, it has a mag)
The start terminal will remain the same.
There are several ways to go about this, one involves a simple relay,
and several articles here relating to this, just use the search feature.

My 1712 has a M18 and to start the tractor you turn the switch on and it has a toggle switch for the mag. Vice versa to turn it off. Seems to work fine.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
